This is a portrait of my daughter Lily. She loves to read. One wall of her room is lined with bookshelves which are packed with hundreds of hard cover and paperback books. I have no idea how many books are on her Nook e-reader.
This image is what I imagine paradise might be for her - a quiet afternoon, a stack of books, a mug of hot tea, and a few squares of chocolate.
Still-Life Family Portrait - Lily
Have a fabulous day!
Be Wonderfully Odd!
I love this! It could be a portrait of me, too.
ReplyDeleteSuch creative composition - love the stacks. The editing with a soft faded look gives a feeling of insight into your daughter - as though we might see her as she sees herself. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteWonderfully creative! I'd love to have a look through all those books... :)
ReplyDeleteThere is no such thing as too many books! I absolutely love how you processed this image and the dof makes it look dreamy. I forgot to put books in my still life of my daughter, she loves books too. I think she gets that from me. :)
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about taking this type of self portrait of myself as well. I love the idea of conveying self through the love of external things and activities. The texture and treatment of this shot is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteSheila, you really "ROCKED" this assignment! I love the theme, and your processing is stunning!!! This would make an outstanding wall print!! Oh my!! So love this!!
